Please would you dig up and post a link to this here?

I've had a good search, but I'm afraid I can't find it on either list, sorry. I may be misremembering, or just looking in the wrong place.

Well if you're still having problems, please let us know the details and we'll see what we can suggest. If it was 24 writeable snapshots of the same device, then it might be worth trying the new thin snapshots. (Set up the origin as a thin device, then drop the size parameter from CHROOT_LVM_SNAPSHOT_OPTIONS.)

Thanks Alasdair, it was indeed all writable snapshots of the same device in this instance. I'll give thin snapshots a go with a current kernel. I no longer have access to the 24 core system (which was also remote, making debugging lockups difficult), but I'll see what I can do on a local quad core system.
